Within the stunning 18th-century landscaped park of Studley Royal in Yorkshire, lies the ruins of Fountains Abbey, one of the finest examples of Cistercian architecture in Europe. Based on contemporary documentary evidence, excavations, and conservation work over the past 30 years, Glyn Coppack outlines the history from the first frontier mission center in 1132 to its subsequent growth through the centuries.

I visited Fountains Abbey several years ago, and at the time didn't buy any books about the place because I didn't want to carry them throughout the rest of my trip. My fascination about Fountains Abbey has only increased since then. This book was a pleasure to read and full of great details. It makes me want to go back and take a second look at this beautiful place.
